Answer 3

steam or boil the carrots until just tender, do not over cook, i use the baby ones, then toss them in a heated fry pan with some brown sugar and butter and a dash of salt and pepper, then toss them until they are well coated with the butter sugar combo. i rarely measure so for about 1 cup of carrots I would say use about 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon sugar. you may have to adjust to make sure that there is an even coating. garnish them with some fresh parsley when done.

Answer 4

A tasty glaze for carrots is a mixture of honey and oj, I don't measure anymore so I can't give exact measurements but their not necessary in this case. Just mix to taste so that it's not too sweet and not to tart. bake or saute for 15 min-not too long or carrots will get soft and limp.

Return pan to stove and add honey and mustard. Heat until bubbly, then return carrots to honey mixture, coat evenly with the sauce and cook for one minute.

Serve immediately.
